Hadhrat Ammaar
(Radhiyallaho anho) and His Parents:
Hadhrat Ammaar
(Radhiyallaho anho) and his parents were also subjected to the severest
afflictions. They were tormented on the scorching sands of Mecca. The Prophet
(Sallallaho
alaihe wasallam) while passing by them would enjoin patience giving them glad
tidings about paradise.
Ammaar's father Yasir
(Radhiyallaho anho) died after prolonged sufferings at the hands of
persecutors, and his mother Sumayya (Radhiyallaho anha) was killed by Abu Jahl,
who put his spear through the most private part of her body, causing her death.
She had refused to renounce Islam in the face of terrible torture in her old
age. The blessed lady was the first to meet martyrdom in the cause of Islam.
The first mosque in
Islam was built by Ammaar (Radhiyallaho anho). When the Prophet (Sallallaho
alaihe wasallam) emigrated to Madinah, Ammaar (Radhiyallaho anho) offered to
build
a structure for him where he could sit, take rest in the afternoon, and say his
Salaat under its roof. He first collected the stones and then built the masjid
in Quba. He fought against the enemies of Islam with great zeal and courage.
Once he was fighting in a battle when he said rejoicingly:
"I am to meet my
friends very soon; I am to meet Muhammad (Sallallaho alaihe wasallam) and his
companions."
He then asked for
water. He was offered some milk. He took it and said:
"I heard the
Prophet (Sallallaho alaihe wasallam) saying to me, "Milk shall be the last
drink of your worldly life."
He then fought till
he met his coveted end.. He was then aged about ninety-four.
